A footnote to a paper by Noma (Q1261206)

Recently \textit{Noma} [``Classification of rank-2 ample and spanned vector bundles on surfaces whose zero loci consist of general points'', Trans. Am. Math. Soc. (to appear)] completed the classification of ample and spanned rank-2 vector bundles with \(c_ 2=2\) on a smooth complex projective algebraic surface. A simple remark shows that the same classification result holds for vector bundles of any rank \(\geq 2\).
